Things made by others that interest me:
-
Gabrielle’s “1-2% of 18th century people could read serious books” fact. We closed our eyes and when we opened them, all but one person’s hands were empty.
- Kimmy’s triptych — walking across the stage in slow motion.
- Bailey’s triptych in the box!
Response: All three pieces made me think about the concept of being alone TOGETHER or alone whilst in a group — each piece made me feel my own individuality even though I was surrounded by others.
Things made by me that interest me:
- Genesis of Love video
- Feng Shui triptych
Response: My two most recent pieces interest me most because they make me think about individual voices telling parts of a story (Adam and Eve, fragments) or completing a list (numbers 1-15); they also make me think of encouraging the audience to participate through implicit rather than explicit methods!
